Gaby is a lawyer-turned-mompreneur, and she knows how to #WomxnUp like a boss!

If there’s one thing remote professionals do a lot of, it’s network. Especially if you are a remote traveler, you are constantly meeting new people and sharing what you do. So the question is: how do you help people quickly understand your business or product in a way that encourages them to engage? Many people believe the first step is developing an elevator pitch. I don't, and here's why...

My strengths lie in creative pursuits. I was used to coming up with the ideas that other people executed. It's not easy to juggle several business without a little help or a solid sounding board. Working with a coach helped me realized I could accomplish so much more just by slowing down and tackling a project piece by piece. Here's what I picked up by working with Colleen Star Koch and Rowan Coaching!

If you're like most of my friends, one of your 2017 goals was to take your social media game to the next level. But what the heck are you supposed to post? YOU'RE JUST ONE PERSON, DANG IT. A lot of people get stumped when it comes to good ideas for relevant social content, but don't worry. We got this. Here are three simple steps that will help you come up with hundreds of new post ideas in just a few minutes!

Two years ago, I started an Instagram profile for my French Bulldog, Ludwig. Social media has long been central to my work — first at Pinnacle Creative, and now at Rowan Coaching—but this was a personal project. Just something my husband and I do for fun to connect with other frenchie lovers in our neighborhood (and around the world!). Despite paying only a minimal amount of attention to it each day, it has grown to over 20,000 followers.

We work with lots of people who are starting something new — be it a business or a personal project. Last week, I was asked by no less than 15 of these folks how I managed to get so many followers with ZERO budget and a minimal investment of about 30 minutes per day. So I figured it was time to share the wealth!
